CNG engine tech play meets solid company with good dividend that doesn't appear to be too terribly overvalued and has plays in other potential game changing techs (water filtration, 3d printing, etc.) Whats not to love?

Industrial internet is the main reason this stock will double in the next year. The company sold off the risky parts, will use those billions to help pay for massive stock paybacks, which will help the stock price go up as well.

My thesis at the time of recommending....was that GE Capital was holding a negative value and the profit "engine" of GE was being discounted. Roll forward the clock and GE has announced a plan to split that negative value out of GE. There is also a tremendous buyback in place - which I love at this rock bottom price. GE is set to expand margins in a meaningful way utilizing new technologies that GE is actually becoming a large player in (ie 3D printing).

GE may benefit more than any other individual company from progressions in 3D printing and the growth and development of the robotics age.

I think GE will be the largest company on the planet in the coming 2-3 decades.

The sale of GE Capital, an enormous buyback of its cheaply valued stock, and a headfirst dive into the industrial Internet give plenty of growth catalysts to this underperforming company. With an almost four percent yield on top of that I expect to see GE outperform over the next several years.

There are some nice industrial conglomerates in Europe who need to shed to remain viable. A nice cash pile and refocus on industrial diversification could prove to be timed just right for struggling behemoths elsewhere.

Berkshire probably forced GE to do the right thing.The $90 billion it intends to return to investors includes a $50 billion stock buyback that ties Apple for the biggest share repurchase ever in the history of the market.

GE's oil and gas division should be boosted by the changes in the shale oil industry to reduce natural gas flaring. They are also restructuring to simplify their business, which should reduce some of the volatility as well.
